No, competition is good. I liked it when you were shipping as well. Char still ships every now and then and there is even a new venture of a sole inter-delve transportation service for pennies. For a long time now I know Theta as a whole detests using ITL which is where Char gets a majority of his work. I was merely quoting in agreement and stating that ITL is still strong as ever with Tiberius at the helm.

You weren't with us at the time so you have no clue what the lowest point in the war was. Spirits were high as gently caress at that point because we finally had a direction. The lowest point in the war was the period we saw gains that had been hard fought by theta/blackops reversed due to command decision to switch targets at seemingly random to little effect. Pilot participation in blops went from an all time high for the last year to virtually nothing unless there was a ping because as near as we could tell we completely stopped responding to the enemy and just started riding bikes. The lowpoint was sitting in Saranen holding our dicks forever while watching a 30 man interceptor gang escorting a T1 hacking cruiser run around reversing gains willy nilly with the only response being a couple of blackops guys trying to kill what we could. Meanwhile at the same time we were getting nonsensical tide is turning messages from people who clearly hadn't undocked into the mess which did absolutely nothing for my morale due to y'know not being blind.

Now I agree I only fought in one little corner of the war, but considering I at least fought it on OUR side, I think I'm a much better judge of "When I thought it all sucked" than the person who hopped ship right when it got difficult. In short gently caress you.

There was quite a bit of back and forth, especially in the beginning. Her rant did get x-posted to reddit, but it ended up there regardless. She had some issues with people while she was with us which made them not want her to come back. I wasn't one of those people as I've supported her return. Mittens makes a post here about the whole thing basically stating that he was going to decide who gets let back in and leave it at that so for a while zeph left it at that. Now it has come up again, so that's why I asked her and everyone else to be quiet about it. I can't stop the ones who don't want her back from speaking out, though, which is the exact thing I wanted to avoid. Hope that gets you up to speed on paco's hot take on the situation.

I think the frustration is more that she made a big drama-laden spergout on Reddit, which in turn inspired at least one copy-cat (Rhea) who went fuckgoons and stole a bunch of people's courier contracts. She didn't personally gently caress goons, but she was out there twirling the baton at the helm of a marching band of goonfuckers.

(For the record, I vote for letting her back in as long as she's never given any sort of responsibility. If only so you stupid loving shits will stop posting about it.)

Landsknecht posted:

Honestly, I disagree. We definitely couldn't have held Deklein. We might have been able to hold Fade, maybe, but it'd be a long shot. We definitely could have held PB, and were honestly making some good progress at one point in re-taking PB before we gave up on it.

However, let's be honest -- PB is complete garbo space. The veins of NPC space, the big stretched-out layout that makes cap travel a bitch, and absolutely terrible true-sec. It's good for moons, and that's about it. (Which is why NC promptly stole all the moons from MOA and made Gen Eve their little bitch, and why half of MOA's PVPers went over to MC.) The only reason we would have held onto PB was pride/stubbornness; and if we're gonna go to a bunch of effort to hold space, we might as well hold space that's worth holding, like Delve.

And yes, it would have definitely helped if allies hadn't been shitlords about how to stage and what to fly. God, the whole "MWD vs AB on Protes" thing was probably the biggest reason that I burned out of illum.

They repriced 90% of the skins; with a few exception, frigate skins are 250 AUR now, cruisers/bcs are 400, BSes and caps are 800.

Yeah, and if you have Alpha-accounts and logged into them yesterday, you got the 300 AUR for those, too. So there's really no excuse to not stock up on your favorite frigate skins and then contract them over to your main. Or to alts you want to use them with.

Ok so you are blaming her for something she had nothing to do with (Rhea) and are clearly just looking to find reasons to hate her even more. Zephyrine "twirling the baton of the goonfucker march" is a stupid, delusional loving thought. And you have the nerve to call the posters ITT stupid loving shits.

yeah once she reimbursed the cargo I thought she'd made good. Initially she did not disclose this (or hadn't done it / wasn't going to do it) and she was called out that she should do it, which she said she wouldn't do. This was at the same time when she was talking a lot of poo poo about leadership as if she were actually somebody. That last part is the part that stuck with folks I think so they overlook the goodwill of paying people back.

You're being unfair. I'm mainly guilty of poor judgement. I fulfilled by obligations to GSF a hundred times over before I left. And when I did I was 100% certain that they would win the war.

There's actually a business theory for this that helps justify firing sadsacks who haven't done poo poo lately, or have become organizational poison in the interim despite past accomplishments. The military uses a much simpler saying in that 1'000 "Attaboy's" can be wiped out by a single "Awe poo poo". The ultimate end of it all is you are remembered by your last action and the impact it had. The last action you are remembered for was ditching us when we were hurting, and joining the team that was hurting us.

If you had joined them six months before? No one would have cared. Six months after? No one would have cared. I honestly don't even know why you want to join anymore, the vast majority of us are all going to treat you like poo poo and people are going to actively look to find ways to gently caress you over the minute you get in.
